At the Institute for Global Prosperity (IGP), we believe that citizens and communities should be at the centre of efforts of understanding prosperity and of shaping policies impacting their own livelihoods. It’s crucial that the societies of the future are informed not only by cutting-edge research but also citizens’ goals and aspirations.
We are developing new ways of working, innovative approaches and flexible tools to uncover key insights and fresh data to tackle complex social, environmental, and policy challenges.
We're establishing cross-sector collaborations with businesses, voluntary organisations and government with the aim of providing secure livelihoods in more sustainable environments, where social innovation can drive economic value.
We’re developing place-based, citizen-led tools to redefine prosperity and identify the pressures people are facing.
We’re co-designing pathways to a ‘good life’, innovative solutions and interventions to meet tangible needs.
We’re pioneering citizen social science, involving the experiences and expertise of local people, and connecting the public with policymaking, empowering citizens to be agents of social change.
